I hate how peopleï compare Frank Zappa to God. I mean, he's cool and great and nice and everything, but he's no Zappa.

A much better start to the day than the last two, clear blue skies, sunshine, there is high blanket cloud but way out to sea, the breeze is reduced but still here, already 16 degree's and fingers crossed the rain stays away and the mercury creeps up, could be in the 20's later.

Yes the gloom and doom forecast has been discarded, around here at least. Bright and sunny but out of the window I can see the thick clouds building up to the south and west. Temperature at 1135am is 17.8C, the air is very damp, says 78% humidity on the screen. There are little specks on the radar showing isolated showers heading our way. There is also one larger bright looking speck about 120km off the coast worth keeping an eye on later.
it won't get much warmer with the cloud around and it wont be cold tonight, maybe 12 or 13C.
Thursday and Friday are also going to be rainy days, on Friday the showers will be short and small so we may escape some. or maybe not!

Agreed, lovely sunny start, plenty of cloud also and still that breeze is there but thankfully much lighter and sparrodic.
It doesn't feel as warm as yesterday morn but I think that's the dampness from the rain we had in the night, even IPMA say 20 degrees for today!

All the rain we were threatened with seems to have gone elsewhere. There were a lot of dark clouds yesterday afternoon and a few drops of rain, but nowhere as bad as was forecast.
This morning it has been bright and sunny, but rather breezy. It's just starting to cloud over now. Temperature at 0940am is 17.1C, it's still a damp air flow from the south. There is a chance of some light rain later today and max temperature 19 or 20C.
Tonight will feel damp again, 13 C or so. Similar temperatures are expected tomorrow, with rain. Saturday could be a bit better, cloudy but maybe only a shower or two, 20C.

Tom you need another forecasting site!
At 2.15pm it's clear blue skies, glorious sun and 20 degree's, yes there's a breeze and that's likely robbing us of a degree or two (but not three! lol!), but otherwise, what a beautiful day.

Just nudging 22 here at 3pm and looking south there's not a cloud in sight. Some hanging around over the hills but they're not coming this way. IPMA still saying it's cloudy with intermittent rain - what are they looking at  Almost tempted to test the pool but the water feels bloody cold - probably no more than 14 or 15 at the minute & that's a bit chilly for me

Well, ten mins ago it was blanket grey cloud and looked highly likely to rain, this moved rapidly east and now we have sun and blue skies with some light fluffy clouds! Looking west, where it's coming from, is positive as it's clear and bright but I'd not be confident on which way it's going to go yet, fingers crossed and at the mo it's good but... we'll see!

A heavy shower has just passed over Páteo and now the sky is clear again. The radar shows a few more isolated showers coming in this general direction for later, it may be one of those days where it rains for 5 minutes in a small area, then gone.
Temperature at 0920am is 16.5C, there is a bit of a breeze and the air is rather damp, 85% humidity it says. Maximum temperature today 19C.
Tonight will be damp but not cold, no lower than about 14C. it looks like tomorrow will be much the same as today, Sunday should be dry but cloudy and maybe a little warmer.

Well yesterday was very nice, and sunny, until mid afternoon, and then it came, I started collecting wood to build an arc!
We've had more rain earlier this morning and at the mo it's dry, bright, cloudy (very) and windy. It's not cold, 16 degree's already but which way will it go, I think this is probably in for the day, not ideal.
